Lately I have been working on a sync process between postgres and other databases, so after much research about drivers I found that the odbc drivers for postgres really sucks. So, after much pain I found the NPSQL drivers and after some thought said wait... I can connect using the script task and generate the files of my tables using metadata and because is ssis not need to build a new service. It is a pain but it gets the job done.
So... Here it is...
/*
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Task

The ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script.

The execution engine calls this method when the task executes.
To access the object model, use the Dts property. Connections, variables, events,
and logging features are available as members of the Dts property as shown in the following examples.
To reference a variable, call Dts.Variables["MyCaseSensitiveVariableName"].Value;
To post a log entry, call Dts.Log("This is my log text", 999, null);
To fire an event, call Dts.Events.FireInformation(99, "test", "hit the help message", "", 0, true);
To use the connections collection use something like the following:
ConnectionManager cm = Dts.Connections.Add("OLEDB");
cm.ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Provider=SQLNCLI10;Integrated Security=SSPI;Auto Translate=False;";
Before returning from this method, set the value of Dts.TaskResult to indicate success or failure.

Excellent article this resumes all issues that I had during the SSIS Postgresql Write and I was looking in several posts on the web but here summarizes perfectly.
ReplyDeleteVery helpful. Very clear! Thanks!I have been searching for a solution to my SSIS Postgresql Write issue with an SSIS project for weeks now. Thanks to you I finally found my solution.
ReplyDeleteI think there is definitely a need to learn more about SSIS Postgre.

ReplyDeleteHi Jorge Novo! Thanks for this post, i was looking for something similar. Could you point me to any help on How to install the driver in my SSIS? I tried to add the npgsql package to my ScriptTask but it doesn't stick, it disappears after i close the task... Thank you
